With DataCorps, your organization will have the opportunity to work with an elite group of pro bono data scientists – including statisticians, data engineers, and computer programmers – on a multi-month project to help you cut costs, save staff time, reach more people in need and ultimately maximize your impact.
As part of its commitment to creating a world of positive returns, Omidyar Network is financially underwriting this call for proposals and, once applications are reviewed, will host a matching challenge to inspire other funders to join in and accelerate impact at this critical time.
We are seeking visionary partner organizations that…
- Work in an issue area related to democratic freedom or civic engagement, such as anti-hate speech, refugees, immigration, journalism, combating fake news etc.
- Are mission-driven – nonprofits, foundations, charities, social enterprises, and government agencies
- Have a clear Theory of Change and understand how their activities lead to real world change
- Have digital data, unexplored datasets or want help finding data to inform their work
- Have leaders committed to using data to make decisions and learn hard truths, not just to report on their past work
